APAD: U cannot have the best, make the best of what U have.

If you cannot have the best, make the best of what you have.

If you cannot get the best of something, make the most of what you can get. This proverb encourages us to appreciate what we have and make the best of our circumstances,rather than fixating on what's unattainable. 

It's a practical and realistic approach to life, suggesting that focusing on what's attainable can lead to greater satisfaction and success than chasing unattainable goals. The proverb subtly encourages a sense of appreciation and gratitude for what you have, rather than constantly desiring more. It promotes adaptability and resilience by suggesting that even when things aren't perfect, you can still find value and success in what's available.

May we all be blessed with the gratitude to appreciate what we have, the wisdom to make the most of our circumstances, and the peace to find contentment in the present moment.
